3.  No dog will be guaranteed unless he carries the Walnut Grove prefix in his registered name, has not been used for breeding and is still with the original owner.

After these qualifications have been met, you may choose a replacement from one of my upcoming litters, paying the difference if the price of the replacement dog is higher.  There is no cash replacement.

Your puppy is guaranteed to be in good health.  It has been completely checked by my veterinarian before being placed in it's new home.  If your puppy becomes ill within 10 days from the day you receive it, you must call me immediately.  If the illness is related to our kennel, we will pay the veterinarian costs, not to exceed the original price of the puppy.

All puppies are sold with Limited Registration. Which means they cannot be used for breeding or stud service.

If your puppy develops a congenital defect within 6 months from the date of birth, you may return the puppy and we will have it examined at our vet then concluding the findings the puppy will be replaced.

All dogs unwanted for any reason MUST be returned to me. If given to someone else I must notified of name and address of new location. None of my dogs are to ever be placed in a new home or shelter without contacting me first.
